6.70.0 release notes

Enhanced document author search, NomCom tools, and more
This release expands the fields to which the 'author' entry in the document
search form is applied, from just author name, to author name, email
addresses, and affiliation. This makes it more feasible to enter a company
name in the author field, and get meaningful results. The search results
page now shows how many hits there are in each document category.
Bluesheets may now be uploaded in text/plain format, not only PDF. For the
nomcom, there's a new eligibility view and some additional tool links in the
menu drop-downs, and for the IESG, there's now a warning if a draft is put
on the telechat agenda so close to the telechat date that directorate
reviews probably won't have time to be completed. Review request deadlines
can now be edited, and there are also some testing enhancements.
